The Sioux Falls Press makes strong
argument in favor of the division of Da-
kota when it presents the following com.
parative figures:
The division OF Dakota would make
two states OF about $4,000 square miles
each. Thee are only eight states in the
ua1on wuich have larger area than this
Texas, California, Nevada, Colorado,
Oregon, Minnesota, Kansas and Nebras-
ka-Gnd there are thirty with q smaller
area.
On a total assessed valuation OF ST.
570, ,S33. .945 in the eight larger states
named, there was levied for state pur-
poses total annual tax of S8, ,366,399
an average rate of five and three
tenths mills on dollar. The
total assessed valuation of the thirty
smaller steues was $15,104 ,644, 1882, and
the amount of the annual tax levied
thereon tor state purposes was Ss1l, ,564, L
390--an average rate of two and seven
tenths mille on the dollar for each.
This is conclusive argument, from
the actual experience of the common
wealths already in existence, that email
er states cost the Taxpayers lower rate
than the larger. The average annual
rate for the thirty states smaller than
South Dakota is only one half the aver
age rate of the eight which are larger.
There is the difference between So 70
and $3.50 per ST. eco.

THE COLOR LINE.

Mixed schools Condemned in Georgia
Under Severe Penalties.
New York, July ia dispatch from
Atlanta to the Tribune, gives the history
and Significance of measure now before
the Georgia Legislature, the result of
which may be to send the teachers of
eolored children to the chain gang. This
bill provides that no school or other
educational institution conducted for
the education OF colored people shall re.
ceive as pupil any white person, and
that no school or educational institution.
conducted for the education of white
people, shall receive as o pupil any
colored person. a violation of it's pro-
vision is made misdemeanor, punisha.
BILE by fine not to exceed 81 900, i'm
prisonment not to exceed six months or
work in the chain gang not to exceed
twelve months, any or all in the discre-
tion OF the court. The reason of the bill
is found in the following facts: In
1867 the American missionary association
founded the Atlanta university for the
education of colored youth, obtaining all
money needed TO build and maintain
the institution from the north, the
total sum since 1867 being over three
hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
For several years there have been few
white pupils in this school. These were
the children of the professors, and in
one instance the child OF Missionary
of the American mission ASSOCIATION.
The presence OF these white children was
due chiefly to the fact that there was no
school in Atlanta where the children
coald receive as thorough training and
discipline, and because the sentiment of
the people against "nigger teachers"
was such that to send children to white
schools would have been to subject them
to ostracism and insult. When the re-
publican congress granted school
lands to the several states,
Georgia received $270,G2o in scrip,
| which brings the state $4,000 year.
This was at first sll given to the state
university at Athens, with nearly one.
| half of its state population coiored. 1t
teok the nations gift for the benefit OF
the whole state, and put it where the
colored people could have no share in it
| whatever. Somebody discovered that
| this was clearly misappropriation Of
funds, and the state at once took great
credit to itself by appropriating half of
| the SUM for the education OF the colored
people and giving 1t to the Atlanta uni-
yersity, although the money is the gift
OF the United States. 1t lie always
spoken OF as a state appropriation.
Now the state suddenly opens its eyes
to the fact that in this institution, built
and supported by the north and receiv-
ing only one-third of its current ex-
penses from the state of national gift
for education, few white children are
being educated, and it is to set the seal
of condemnation On any such mixture
of scholars that measure worthy OF the
dark ages has been introduced in the
Legislature.

The westward march of the chinch

coming year is that the chinch bug will
devastate the wheat fields of our terri.

by these insects and the farmers of this

The Sioux Falls Argus-Leader (revIsed
Doodle edition) says Yankton IS suffer
ing the contempt of all honest men for
harboring its resident members Of the
board OF insane hospital trustees. The
Argus Leader is becoming so hopelessly
foolish in its rage that its utterances are
hardly worth replying to. 1t is under
stood that the Argus-Leader is lending
its believing voice to the governor in
his effort to frighten the Yankton trus-
tees into resigning. That paper has
progressed fer beyond it's instructions
The governor has never charged any
thing serious against these trustees. II
would be we'll for the Argua-Leader to
review the reports made in this case.

that he said he would give all the boys

By act of the last legislature authority
was conferred to insure public buildings
against loss or damage by fire. Under
this Law the Dakota hospital for the
insane has been insured and the price OF
this insurance has been paid. The law
requires that the trustees of the hospital
shall cause the building to be insured
and that the auditor shall draw warrants
in payment for such insurance upon the
authority of such trustees. The insur-
'ance was placed by the governor and
payment was made upon warrants drawn
without the authority of the trustees oil
the hospital. This is clearly illegal.
Another investigation is in order. Will

by the legislature for the care of the
insane people of south Dakota. This
draft upon the incidental fund OF the
hospital is without authority. It is o
much more flagrant offence than the use
OF one fund within the hospital TO pay
the demands upon another fund within
the hospital. 1t diverts hospital money
for purposes entirely foreign to hospital
An investigation of the
public examiner would now be IN order.

This amount is paid to Mr.. Harris,
public examiner, to reimburse him for
expenses incurred in conducting the in
vestigation against the trustees OF the
hospital. There is nothing in the
statutes comforting authority upon the
public examiner to draw his expenses
out OF the money appropriated for the
maintensace OF public institutions. The
various funds of the hospital for the in :
sane are set apart exclusively for the
uses prescribed. The investigation in
which the public examiner incurred
these expenses was made with the pur-
pose of establishing as one fact that the
hospital trustees had used money be-
longing to certain hospital funds in the
liquidation Of the expenses of certain
other hospital funds. This fact, not
denied, was established by the investi.
cation and has gone upon the record as
one Of the charges against the trustees
though it ia feeble one. But the moon

The Custer lEassacre.

Boston, Mass, July 19-Oapt. Henry
W. Horne, chief Of Gen. Custer's scouts
during the memorable campaign against
Sitting Bull, in which Custer lost his
life, is in the city and has been inter-
viewed as to what he knows of the terri
bic massacre. He tells remarkable
story which throws considerable light
upon the celebrated battle. He says he
was with Custer three hours before the
battle in which he met his fate. He
strongly intimated that others besides
Indians were at the back of the affair.
After the battle while examining the
trail to discover the number of Indians
in the fight, q net work of wire was
found stretched in the grass in the val
ley near the plateau where the battle
occurred, the purpose of which was TO
throw the horses OF the soldiers, SHOULD
they attempt to escape, making it an
easy matter for the Indians to shoot
from telegraph poles. Says Capt
Horne: "Since that fight no less than
twenty-five Indians who participated ir
the battle have distinctly told me that
the wire was procured and laid down
ander the direction Of number Of
renegade white men, who wore with the
Indians disguised as warriors, and who
were anxious to keep mp the hostiiitiei
